Cheif (Mrs) Danjuma stated this during a courtesy visit paid to the State Governor in his office, State Secretariat, Abere.
She noted that since the emergence of Governor Adeleke in Osun, the economy has improved tremendously even in Oyo State noting that in the past, the traders in the Oyo market have written Osun traders off in terms of poor patronage.
She equally congratulated the Governor on his victory at the Supreme Court which affirmed him as the authentic Governor of the State.
She spoke further, “Mr. Governor, I want to congratulate you on your victory at Supreme Court.
“I want to tell you that within the few months you took over the leadership in Osun, Osun’s economy has improved in no small measure because, formerly, we traders in Oyo State have written traders from Osun off because of their poor patronage. But now, I can tell you categorically that things have changed for the better because we have to wait for them every Tuesday. After all, we see how they have raised the bar of our economy in the market”.
She, however, charged residents of the State to always pay their tax for the development of the State, while praying for the Governor and other political office holders to succeed in piloting the affairs of the State.
